Relations Reviewed Between America & PLO
By Joseph Polakoff
WASHINGTON (JTA) -~ Although the Palestine Liberation Organization has ^two offices in New York with U.S. official consent and U.S. Embassy officials in Beirut are in communication with the PLO terrorists there, the State Department insists that the United States does not "recognize" the PLO.
This developed when the Jewish Telegraphic Agency asked the Department to clarify its written response of about 350 words to a pre¬ vious JTA question regard¬ ing reported fund-raising in the U.S. by the PLO. The statement noted that the PLO established an "infor¬ mation office" in New York in 1965 and registered with the U.S. Justice Department at that time as "a foreign agent." ■'
It files reports every six months with the Justice Department, the response said. The PLO observer office, on the other hand, was set up under a UN Gen- - eral Assembly resolution. It "is not reigstered with Jus¬ tice and rteed not be," the State Department said.
Since the end of June, U.S.
officials have been in contact with the PLO in Lebanon for .""purposes ' of protecting Americans at the Embassy there, U.S. authorities have said.
Asked by JTA whether the contacts in Beirut,' together with the PLO offices in New c.York, add up to U..S. "de 'facto" if not "de jure" recog¬ nition of the PLO, the Department's chief spokes¬ man Robert Funseth replied "neither," He said the con¬ tacts did not constitute "sub¬ stantive" action of recog¬ nition.
, Columnists Jack Anderson and Les Whitten reported on Sept. 20, that the PLO re¬ ceived a check for $4984 from persons in Virginia. The PLO observer office di-
- rector, Zuhdi Terzi, ad¬ mitted to them that he re¬ ceived the check, the colum¬ nists said, and that he for¬ warded it to Jacob Oubedi,
- the PLO's top fund-raiser in Beirut:. •
' Oubedi, the 'columnists said, signed a, thank you note, written in Arabic on the stationery of the PLO's UN office and addressed to the ''Palestinian Committee in theStateofVirginia." Terzi also admitted, the

Senators Minimize Israel's Ban On Nuclear Reactor Plant Visit

JERUSALEM, "(JTA) - Sen. John Glenn (D. Ohio) said Nov. .9 that "Israel jprobably had her own rea¬ sons" for not allowing him and ,12 fellow senators to visit its nuclear reactor in Dimona. The former astro-
columnists said, that" the PLO funddrive reached into many state's But" that" money for. the PliO* was* scarce. Funseth acknowledged as '.'correct" that the PLO re¬ ceived the $4984.

General Assembly Adopts Resolution Against Israel

UNITED NATIONS, (JTA)„ — The General. As¬ sembly adopted a resolution - Nov. 9 condemning "the con- . tinuing and increasing col¬ laboration by Israel .with the " South African racist regime." The vote was 91-20
" with'28 abstention^; . IsraeLdid not participate in the vote on that resolution.
L or on any of the nine other resolutions dealing with apartheid, as a protest • against, the "selective and dishonest process" of singling out Israel's re¬ lations with the Pretoria ' government. '«^ ,^
The 20 countries that voted against the' anti-Israel resolution were: Australia; Austria; Belgium; Canada; Denmark; France; Guate¬ mala; Honduras; Iceland; Ireland; Italy; Luxem- ' bourg; The- Netherlands; New Zealand; Nicaragua; Norway;' Sweden; -United Kingdom; United States; and West Germany.
The resolution requested the Secretary General to dis¬ seminate widely a special re¬ port by the special-commit¬ tee against apartheid on the matter of Israel's relations with South Africa. The Arab- inspired resolution was the culmination of repeated
. Arab attacks on Israel dur¬ ing the debate on apartheid which began on Oct. 26.-
Israel's Ambassador to the UN, Chaim Herzog, said in a statement to the GeneraK Assembly before the voting that Israel would.not partici¬ pate in the voting on any of the 10"apartheid resolutions. He said this was because the debate "hastoeen turned into an- anti-Israel -issue, _ ignoring as it'does the major moral problem of apartheid which should be exercising this body, because those who prepared the resolution against Israel (the Arabs)
are guilty of crimes with which .they accuse-others; because what we are called upon to participate' in is a' monstrous- act of deceit and a cynical vote based on inter¬ national hypocrisy and un¬ scrupulous falsehood."
Herzog accused the Arabs of turning the - debate on apartheid-into a debate on "the Middle East. He said the Arabs have not the slightest interest in advancing the struggle against racial dis¬ crimination in the world and that by their anti-Israel drive, they prejudice "any prospect to achieving con¬ sensus on what is close to the hearts of the Africans."
Herzog reiterated that the Arab states have economic ties-with South Africa. He

He said the pur¬ pose of the senators' trip to Israel, Egypt and Iran was to discuss problems' of "mutual interest." He said he was much more con- - cerned with reaching an agreement between Israel and her neighbors that would, keep the area free of nuclear weapons.
Glenn and Sen. Howard Baker Jr. (R.-Tenn.) had ori¬ ginally requested permis¬ sion for the group to visit Dimona from Washington when the Middle East trip was still in the planning / stages. It was turned down by Israel at that time but'the senators repeated their- re¬ quest at a meeting with '- Premier Yitzhak Rabin when they arrived here. Rabin said no. - -~
,. Israeli .officials explained , • that the refusal was a matter of principle and that since the Dimona reactor was built with French know-how - but no American assistance, Israel did not feel obligated to open it to inspection by the American legislators.

'You Don't Have To Be Jewish'
By Maurice Samuelson
LONDON, (JTA) — Every Sunday morning thou¬ sands of Jews here switch on their radios and prepare to listen to a half hour of Jewish music, discussion arid humor on Radio London. The audience represents only apart of London's 200,000 Jews, but many of them have become devoted followers of Michael Freedland. who began the program five years ago. - 7 It is entitled "You Don't Have To Be Jewish", and ,Freedland claims that half the 300,000 people who tune in are non-Jews. His program started shortly after the _. BBC introduced local high frequency broadcasting in theLondonarea. „ . *
It is produced with the cooperation of the Board of" Deputies of British Jews. However,.it is in noway a tool of the Jewish establishment and also steers clear of the more parochial controversies.
Over the past five years, Freedland has hosteda.dis- " tJnguished collection of speakers, from former pre-, - mieres Harold Wilson and Golda Meir to Lord Samuel, the "Archbishop of Canterbury and Leon Rosten. Although the program lacks a truly mass'following -r because of wavelength rather than quality — it has be¬ come accepted as part of the London Jewish scene and there would be a shrill outcry if it were to go off the air.
As well as covering the local scene, it keeps listeners in touch with the rest of the Jewish world with just the right mixture, of levity and solemnity. Freedland him¬ self is besf-when interviewing Jewish entertainers. This is natural because of his special interest in them. He is currently' writing1^ study of. Jewish entertainers ■. to place alongjjide'his books op Irving Berlin, Al Jolson • * and Sophie Tucker.
